Counselling

I offer a calm, grounded, supportive presence. Relationship is central to the therapeutic processand it is essential to feel that we will be able to work together, creating a safe place for you to bring whatever brings you to therapy. You may be bringing an issue in your life which is feeling uncomfortable or challenging, a sense of lostness and longing which feels less clear.

I offer humanistic, integrative therapy with a foundation in psychodynamics.

This means – I hold you at the centre of our work, valuing you as a unique individual who, with support, can find or uncover your own wisdom. My role is not to offer advice or opinions

I am able to bring in other therapeutic methodologies such as mindfulness, breath work, body-mind connection and creative practices.

I am interested in your childhood and earliest relationships and attachments and how these influence your current ways of relating and experiencing.

Initial Session

I offer a reduced rate for an initial session so we can meet each other and see if we are a good fit to work together. You may wish to meet with a number of practitioners.

In this first session I will take some details from you about your present situation and what brings you to therapy, your past experiences and history, along with practical discussion about the boundaries of our work, our contract and the process. In this session you can get a sense of me and how I work and ask any questions.

If you would like to go on working together, I initially recommend working to 12 sessions. You may decide from the beginning that is the full course of our work, or I can offer longer term therapy where we review along the way.
